ftrace: use raw_smp_processor_id for mcount functions
Due to debug hooks in the kernel that can change the way smp_processor_id works, use raw_smp_processor_id in mcount called functions (namely ftrace_record_ip). Currently we annotate most debug functions from calling mcount, but we should not rely on that to prevent kernel lockups. This patch uses the raw_smp_processor_id to prevent a recusive crash that can happen if a debug hook in smp_processor_id calls mcount.
